I am sure this topic has been beaten to death but I have yet to find relief in any of the suggestions.
I have read about the dreaded leg cramps and I do have these SOMEHWAT but what is really bothering is arm cramps. I can only describe it as it feels as though my arms are not long enough for my body and all I can do is keep stretching them. I think they are the same thing as the leg cramps. LIke most of what I read it seems to happen as soon as I start drifting off to sleep, wakes me up. I haven't slept in a few days. I just recently made 30 days on this WOL and while I love everything about it, this one little problem is turning into a nightmare and I am considering quitting after 3 full nights of not sleeping. I have tried potassium. I have been taking it all along and as the problem progressed I was taking up to 8 99's a day and still nothing. I arranged my whole menu to include foods full of potassium. I included magnesium. I stretch before bed. I only had one night of rest and that day I drank a glass of a milk and ate a banana out of desperation but i would really hate to have to continue doing that. Any other suggestions? The only other thing I have read is cutting out aspratame drinks, which I just looked and I have been drinking pepsi max which does contain aspartame. I was previously drinking pepsi one which I think is Splenda sweetened. So I am starting to think there might be something to this guys suggestion however he didn;t include any information as to why this may work. I don;t have a problem switching to Pepsi One instead other than it is much harder to find so I admit I have been buying the max out of laziness. |
